The Compensation Our Pittsburgh T-Bone Accident Attorneys Recover Can Change Your Life

Serious injuries like bone fractures, head injuries, and back injuries cause major disruption. In addition to the physical and emotional pain, the financial losses can lead to significant distress for you and your loved ones.

That is why Pennsylvania allows accident victims to pursue fair compensation from the negligent party or parties who caused them harm.

The personal injury lawyers on our team pay close attention as our clients tell their stories so we can accurately list all of the damages they are entitled to. This list may include:

• Pain and suffering, for the physical and psychological anguish you have experienced
• Reduced quality of life, for any necessary or enjoyable tasks or activities that you can no longer handle
• Disability, for any temporary or permanent loss of ability or range of motion caused by the injuries
• Medical expenses, for the cost of treating your injuries and their symptoms
• Loss of wages, for the money you could not earn while healing or will be unable to earn in the future due to permanent injuries
• Property damage, for the cost of repairing or replacing your vehicle

We have a limited time to begin your case and to collect evidence (e.g., Pittsburgh Bureau of Police reports, medical records, and video footage) that proves you are entitled to these damages. The sooner you begin, the better.

How Do You Get Damages After a T-Bone Accident?

You may have two options for recovering damages from the negligent party: filing an insurance claim or filing a lawsuit. Our Pittsburgh attorneys can help you determine which option is right for you by assessing your case and your goals, and by reaching out to the insurance company to see how they respond to your request for damages.

Call today to speak with us. Berger and Green offers a no-win, no-fee guarantee, so you do not have to worry about paying us unless and until we recover compensation for you.

How to Find the Right Pittsburgh T-Bone Accident Lawyer

It is important to hire a lawyer who not only has experience with your particular case type but who you trust and connect with on a personal level. Car accident cases can take a while to resolve, so you want a legal representative you are comfortable working with.

You may want to research and meet with several firms before picking one. When you talk to Berger and Green, we encourage you to ask as many questions as you want about our services and your situation, including:

• How have you handled T-bone accident cases in the past?
• What do you see as the main opportunities and challenges in my case?
• What will you need from me to get started?
• How often will you be in touch about my case?
• How can I contact you if something happens or I have questions?

If you decide our law firm is right for you, we will remain easily accessible for as long as your case lasts.

How T-Bone Accidents Happen—and How to Protect Yourself

T-bone accidents occur when the front of one vehicle crashes into the side of another. They tend to occur when multiple streams of traffic converge ,and one or more drivers fail to pay sufficient attention to their surroundings.

Your risk of being in a crash may increase in heavily trafficked areas, especially near tourist attractions or other areas popular with drivers who are unfamiliar with the city.

By remaining alert and following the rules of the road, you can keep yourself and others safe in many situations—many, but not all. If you were struck by a careless driver, you have the right to take legal action against that driver.

Here are a few of the circumstances under which you can pursue compensation from the driver who hit you:

Accidents Caused by Running Red Lights or Stop Signs

Under state law, drivers must stop at red lights and stay where they are unless there is a sign posted that gives them permission to turn on red. They must also come to a full stop at stop signs. If a driver ignores these directions, they could run into the side of a vehicle crossing their path that has the right of way.

Improper Turn Accidents

As previously mentioned, drivers are expected to make turns only when they have the right of way. This includes not only turns at intersections but also in parking lots and when exiting driveways. Failure to pay attention and to yield the right of way to oncoming traffic could cause a T-bone accident.

If this is what happened in your case, our Pittsburgh left turn accident lawyers are here to help.

Accidents Involving an Equipment Malfunction

In some cases, the driver who hit the side of your vehicle is not (or not entirely) to blame. If a part of their car—especially the brakes—malfunctioned or was defective, they might have been unable to stop or turn their car to avoid an accident. In these cases, the mechanic or car manufacturer might be liable.

No matter how your accident happened, Berger and Green can collect evidence to show it was not your fault and that the other driver owes you damages.
